Jula Radio Plays—Ivory Coast

 
Michelle Petersen, working with the Jula people in Ivory Coast, is producing radio dramas in that language. She wrote, “I am working with non-professional actors and I am a novice media person. Someone recently encouraged me though with this thought, ‘Professionals built the Titanic; amateurs built the ark. You’re too blessed to be stressed.’” In spite of computer troubles and difficult deadlines and a coup d’etat, Michelle and her team of actors released their first season of Jula radio programs on time. Then they prayed and waited to see what God would do.

A few months later, Michelle wrote excitedly, “Yahoo! The Abidjan radio station just called me to say people haven’t stopped calling the station, and all they talk about is how good the Jula radio plays are. Some who don’t understand Jula have asked why we don’t do them in French! Some callers say they have heard a lot of preaching, but this radio drama stuff is new and they love it. I hope you are encouraged by this news. Please pray God uses these radio plays to draw many people to Himself.”
